Would this program work with scanned image PDF files?

Tom,

You might take a quick look at this simple, free online PDF-to-Word
conversion website:

Well, "Able to Extract" worked reasonably well, but did proove to be a bit
cumbersome, especially when it came to actually getting to the conversion
for the files I needed to work with.

I am now leaning more toward Omnipage, which has been suggested and tried by
a number of folks on the list.

Have yet to make the final decision, though.
